2. What might happen if you are not familiar with greetings from other countries? (Maybe we would feel embarrassed; we might be involved in awkward situations like …)
3. Discuss the three questions on the page in groups of four, then give us you answer. Q1. In English-speaking countries, there are some formal greetings, such as “How do you do?”
“How have you been?” and “How are you?”. There are also some informal ways of greetings. For example, people often greet others that they know well with “Hi”, “Hi, there”, or “What’s up?” While in China, people tend to say, “Have you had your breakfast / lunch / supper?” or “Where are you going?”
Q2. There are various reasons for this question. First, there are cultural differences. People in the West countries might feel at a loss when they hear Chinese greet them by asking whether they have eaten or not. Second, people often use different greetings towards different people. How they greet their superiors is different from how they greet their peers.
Q3. One custom that is different in the West and in China is to receive gift. Another is to open the gift.

5. Fill in the blanks according to the reading:
Today I talked with two other students, from Brunei called Waled and the UK called
Peter. It was very interesting talking to them and analyzing some of the many cultural
differences between countries.
Even the UK and the USA seem to have different traditions. Americans have something
called Thanksgiving, a festival which celebrates the first good harvest of the
settlers who went from Europe. British people do not celebrate this and the British
teachers in Brunei did not understand what all the excitement was about for the
American teacher. The differences between wedding in different countries were also
discussed. It seems we need to understand culture differences to avoid mistakes in communication, which could be embarrassing. In other words, it is easy to misunderstand things, so we need to know what is appropriate. For example, Westerners coming to the East do not know that we do not open presents in front of the person who gives them to us. Waled told us that in Brunei it is rude to point with your first finger and so they use their thumbs instead.
Free talking:
More cultural differences between China and other countries.
1. Response to thankfulness:
a. — Thank you.
China: Never mind / No thanks.
West. My pleasure / You are welcome. / Not at all.
* Never mind is used when someone apologizes to you.
2. Privacy:
b. How old are you? / Are you married? / How much do you make every month? Where are you going? / Have you had breakfast / lunch / supper?
(To the English, these questions are privacy. It is very impolite to ask these questions.)
3.Appreciation:
c. Your spoken English is quite goo
d.
C: No, not really. I must work hard at it.
F: Thank you.
(Modesty is one of Chinese traditional virtues. But in cross-culture
communication, it will leads to a failure. When the appreciation is responded by something like “no, not really”, the foreigner may think th at they make a false judgment.)
d. This picture is quite beautiful.
C: No. / If you like it, I’ll give it to you.
F: Thank you. It’s a gift from my … / I bought it …./ It’s nice of you to say so.
4. Gestures
e. nodding or shaking one’s head
C: Yes or No
Some parts of Greece and Turkey: No or Yes.
South-east Asia: A polite way of saying, “I’ve heard you.”
f. thumbs up
China and most places: Very good / Every thing is OK.
Sardinia of Italy: It’s insulting. The gesture is never used.
